About James

Hi, I’m James Whitesmith and Vignette Design serves as my online portfolio, personal website and window to the world.

I’m currently employed by Glenelg Design Ltd, a small consultancy based in West Yorkshire, UK. As ‘Visual Media Designer’ I am involved in all kinds of creative work, including web, identity, print and graphic projects.

I also provide freelance services for clients based both locally and further afield, primarily designing and building websites but additionally supplying identity, branding, digital and print solutions.

Technical Skills

  • Bespoke website design & build
  • HTML & CSS development with jQuery
  • Branding: Logos, colour & typography
  • Print ready graphics and artwork
  • Business cards, letterheads, etc.
  • 3D Visualisation: Logos & abstracts

With experience in a wide range of design disciplines I am able to provide complete, consistent solutions spanning both digital and printed materials.
